Rear view

A rear view of the Bombay High Court building featuring its prominent neo Gothic architectural style with twin towers and dark stone facade. Built in 1878, the 1st official court sitting inside the premises happened on Jan10th 1879. It stands tall under the beautiful blue sky.

Today happens to be 'Mahatma Gandhi' Jayanti (birth anniversary) who was from the legal fraternity and fought for our freedom. So Happy Gandhi Jayanti!

Kala Ghoda

The name Kala Ghoda is a reference to the presence of a black stone statue of King Edward VII (as the then Prince of Wales) mounted on a horse that was built by Jewish businessman and philanthropist Albert Abdullah David Sassoon, although this statue was removed from the precinct in 1965 and subsequently placed inside the Byculla Zoo. A local legend stated that the statues of King Edward and the one of Shivaji on a horse at the Gateway of India came to life after midnight and battled it out on the streets.^[3] In 2017, the 'Kala Ghoda' returned to the area with a new statue of a similar looking horse without a rider, being commissioned by the Kala Ghoda Association. The statue, titled 'Spirit of Kala Ghoda' was designed by architect Alfaz Miller and sculpted by Shreehari Bhosle. Ref: Wikipedia
